When overseeing complex plant environments, you need more than a generic risk checklist. Our plant risk assessment template is built specifically for identifying, evaluating, and documenting hazards in industrial settings. Use it to address challenges like machine guarding, lockout/tagout, and chemical exposure with confidence.

The International Labour Organization estimates that workplace accidents and diseases claim 2.78 million lives each year worldwide. With this template, it’s easier to ensure team safety and regulatory compliance. For related needs, check out our fire, COSHH, or dynamic risk assessment templates as well.

Frequently asked questions

What are the most common hazards identified during a plant risk assessment?

Typical hazards include unguarded machinery, electrical faults, slips and trips, hazardous substances, moving parts, and inadequate lockout/tagout procedures. These risks can cause injuries, downtime, or regulatory fines if left unchecked, so spotting them early is crucial.

How can you ensure your plant risk assessment is comprehensive and not missing key risks?

To make your risk assessment thorough, involve staff who work directly with the machinery, use detailed checklists, review past incidents, and consult safety standards like ISO 45001. Cross-checking with multiple sources can help you spot less obvious hazards and avoid blind spots.

What should you do if you discover a critical risk during a plant risk assessment?

If you find a critical risk, address it immediately. Shut down the process or equipment if needed, inform your team, and implement control measures. Document every step and update your risk assessment to reflect the corrective actions taken for future reference.

How do you prioritize risks identified in a plant risk assessment?

Prioritize risks by assessing their likelihood and potential impact. Address high-probability and high-impact hazards first, especially those with severe safety or regulatory consequences. Use a risk matrix to support your decision-making process.
